Cuba Depends on Private Sector Amid Economic Crisis
Cuba has announced the opening of several economic sectors to private companies in order to face the worst economic crisis in decades, resulting from the U.S. embargo and the worsening crisis caused by power outages and basic necessities shortages. The sectors opened to private operation include fuel distribution, port services, elderly care, and pharmacies, aiming to alleviate the severe shortages of goods and services. This move represents a shift in the longstanding communist economic approach. Meanwhile, the government continues to maintain control over vital sectors such as education and communications to preserve its authority amid ongoing disruptions caused by escalating economic crises, which have led to protests and public criticism.
